Reggia del Saraceno

3 nice bedrooms. Bath rooms very ok. Clean. Privat balcony. Good communication with staff.

Some parts of the house need some renovation, but maybe for Sicily standards it is still quite good.

The apartment is centrally located. The beds were comfortable and the apartment was clean.

The stairs were a big challenge for everyone in the group, even the fit ones. Also, in the ground floor bathroom, there is a light switch for the hot water, but this is not indicated anywhere, so I took a cold shower the first morning. Instructions for finding the apartment and unloading our luggage and then finding parking were very confusing and caused a bit of stress when we arrived. Nothing is really explained, so if you’re new to Ortigia, as our small group of five was, you will be confused.

Ubytování bylo přímo v centru, blízko mnoha restaurací. K moři to bylo přibližně 300m. Apartmán byl prostorný, velmi dobře vybavený. Kuchyň byla skvěle vybavený. Přímo naproti ubytování byly tři restaurace.

Střešní terasa byla lehce zanedbaná, některé vnější žaluzie nešli vytahovat. Parkování je možné za poplatek na veřejném parkovišti, cca 600m dalek.

This 3 floor plus terrace on top apartment is a great find. Perfect location, really nice aesthetics, with wonderful furniture and an artistic touch. It is great for a family of six, sharing between 2 families or a large group of friends. Sleeps comfortably six in 3 bedrooms in the 3 different floors, has 2 bathrooms. The staff was very friendly and helpful on how to arrive and handle the complexities of a pedestrian city.

The place has the feeling of being a bit worn down, definitely needs some upkeep. Mattress on ground floor was completely worn, soft and uncomfortable. There was no toilet cover on the bathroom in the second floor. Instead of a hand soap in the sink there was a fixed hairconditioner bottle, as the holder was broken inside the shower. The shower head was changed, but couldn’t fit in the holder so you could only shower while holding it. The hot water was not enough for one person to take a shower on the ground floor bathroom, it was always ending up being cold. This, despite not touching the button for the boiler. We didn’t experience anything similar on the second floor bathroom. The curtains on the balcony are missing, not like in the pictures, allowing for really ugly views across the building. Its a collection of small details that may disappoint, despite the fact that the apartment is really lovely and in a super location.
